Purpose Driven Profile Roasting

Customer expectation for quality and consistency demands that we can no longer roast by sight and smell alone. Today's successful roaster is armed with a clear idea of purpose, a plan for achieving that purpose, knowledge of cupping, and profile roasting to accomplish that purpose. Success as a roaster lies in understanding and controlling the roasting machine to perfectly discover the highest value inherent in the coffee bean. All of this and more will be covered by Miles Small from Diedrich Roasters to give you more insight on what can make you a successful roaster.

This is one of the 50 free classes offered at Coffee Fest Chicago and is included in your general admission; show up early to get a great seat.REGISTER for
